Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 28, 2022 Accelerate Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") filed a definitive proxy statement relating to a special meeting of shareholders to approve (i) amendments to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Charter Amendment Proposals") and (ii), an amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated March 17, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (the "Trust Amendment Proposal" and together with the Charter Amendment Proposal, the "Proposals"), which would, if implemented, allow the Company to redeem all of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Public Shares") in advance of the Company's contractual expiration date of March 22, 2023 by changing the date by which the Company must cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up if it fails to consummate a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination (a "Business Combination") from March 22, 2023 to December 15, 2022 (the "Early Termination Date"). In connection with the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposals, the holders of Public Shares may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in exchange for their pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account (the "Voluntary Redemption"). The Company expects to complete the Voluntary Redemption on or around the Early Termination Date if shareholders approve the Proposals.

If the Proposals are approved, the Company will redeem all remaining Public Shares not redeemed in the Voluntary Redemption not more than ten business days after the Early Termination Date. Additionally, the last day of trading of the Public Shares will be December 15, 2022, if shareholders approve the Proposals.

The virtual special meeting will be held on Tuesday, December 15, 2022, at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time, and the record date for the meeting is the close of business (New York time) on November 25, 2022.
